It is hilarious that so many people swallowed what was pure speculation by a hack writer as fact. The only thing we have ever heard from Gaudreau is he wants to stay, his wife and family love the city, he wants to be here, yet some bad beat writer who put his speculation out for clicks has people still believing that garbage, even after he has done an about face on it. Mind boggling.

I don’t think any Flames/hockey fan takes what Francis has to say seriously. Frankly, I’m not sure why he’s even worth acknowledging and I’m doubtful of how much he has to say has any bearing on people’s opinions who post here. People aren’t as dumb as you might like to think.
It’s curious how much the local blow hard seems to have rattled you. It’s been this way for years now that you will randomly bring him into the discussion to disparage him and accuse others of thinking like him, completely unprovoked as well.
Let it go. No one cares about Francis and if they do, they shouldn’t.
